A jet headed for Spain"s Canary Islands veered off the runway at Dortmund airport in western Germany on Sunday, but no one was injured, AP quoted authorities as saying. The pilot of the Air Berlin Boeing 737-800, with 165 passengers and six crew members on board, had decided to abort the takeoff because of a «technical irregularity» that is still being examined, airline spokeswoman Diane Daedelow said. The aircraft braked but left the runway in wintry conditions. It came to rest with its nose pointing down a slight, snow-covered slope. The plane was undamaged and passengers were able to leave the aircraft normally using steps, Daedelow said. The passengers and their luggage were being taken to nearby Paderborn airport, from where another aircraft was to fly them to Las Palmas, she added. Dortmund airport said the accident happened at 7:05 a.m. (0605GMT). The airport was closed to allow for the aircraft"s recovery, and other flights were canceled or diverted, according to its Web site.
